    After a long injury, I got back to slowly running on the treadmill/bike/elliptical at the gym. IIRC, my garmin qualified its VO2Max results by saying I needed to run out side for s…

    dropping off the bus is the best case fail really. Its more annoying when writes become slower than the other disks often causing confusing performance profiles of the overall arra…

    exact same reaction. I remember hearing about "regrowing teeth through sound waves"... in 2006. https://www.cbc.ca/news/science/dentist-engineer-team-up-to-... Can't say I have hea…

    For me, when I first started running, I thought going on a 5k run burnt scads of energy. At 100KG I was looking at about 400-500 cals-- Thats a fancy muffin basically. But when you…

    Happy memories. I discovered it around Delphi 2.0 when I was using Visual Objects in school. As soon as I starting playing with Delphi, it was an immediate realization, "Oh, this i…

    I am in a similar same boat. Its way more correct than not for the tasks I give it. For simple queries about, say, CLI tools I dont use that often, or regex formulations, I find it…

    Would be useful to see the cost of just the land as well if thats possible. As others have pointed out, the size and feature expectation inflation has to be factored in here. The l…

    I suspect the distributed cracking will move to the same pattern as the SMTP/pop3 brute force guys did and use one IP per x+1 seconds where x=the ssh penalty window. We have seen t…

    TBH, my heart fluttered a bit when I saw the 2001 keyboard pictures. It was magic when I discovered the PET in the 80s.... I was a typical disengaged teen at school up until that p…

    Straight up Smartwool. I use the same weight usually and just change out the height based on winter vs summer. But some of the other brands of 100% wool work well for me too.
